Hi list, Recently, after messing around a bit (changing freqs with ivtv-tune and catting /dev/video0 to a test file or opening the device directly with mplayer) with my WinTV PVR150 MCE tv-card, I noticed that my system had slown down a lot. When I later checked my /var/log/messages file I noticed that it had grown from 20mb or so to 700+ mb. Inside there were a lot of these messages, about 40 every second:
Dec 28 05:54:56 aphax ivtv0 warning: ENC Stream 0 OVERFLOW #6987658: Stealing a Buffer, 512 currently allocated Dec 28 05:54:56 aphax ivtv0 warning: ENC Stream 0 OVERFLOW #6987659: Stealing a Buffer, 512 currently allocated Dec 28 05:54:56 aphax ivtv0 warning: ENC Stream 0 OVERFLOW #6987660: Stealing a Buffer, 512 currently allocated I am going to guess that a simple reboot will put the ivtv driver / card back into a normal state, but I wonder how it got this way, can anyone assist? I'm using ivtv-0.4.0-r2 (the -r2 might be the portage revision of Gentoo, not sure) on Gentoo 2005.1 with the linux-2.6.14-gentoo-r4 kernel. Let me know of more info is needed. _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
